Parsimony: I grew up with a grandmother, my meemaw, who is an amazing seamstress. Even now at almost 92 years old she’s still sewing strong. It wasn’t until I was well into my 20’s and a new wife that I decided…hmmmm. I want better curtains than I can afford. And the rest is history. I took a class and have never stopped sewing. I love it.

Gorgeous simple dresses great for bridesmaids, proms and special events.

The wrap style fits many body shapes, so lots of people can find a flattering fit.

They even have a couple of less-formal styles which are great for days when, you know, you’re not attending the Grammys or something.

Clare Bare

It’s been a while since I looked in on what Clare Bare has been up to. I’ve got to say, her stuff is even better than it was last year.

Clare Bare: My main goal is to make people feel good about themselves. I make garments that accentuate the body, rather than cover it up, push it up, or transform it into something that it never could be. I don’t believe in clothing that is created to solve a problem- the flaw doesn’t exist until you design something for it. I feel that this is one reason why people are so unsatisfied with their bodies. You can buy a garment that will temporarily make you look “better” while you’re wearing it, but when you take it off you’re even more dissappointed than you were in the first place because you realize that it’s not the real you. My lingerie is constructed to frame your body, fit comfortably, and make you feel naturally beautiful as you should.
